Government Youth Traineeship Program
These employment opportunities are in support of the Government’s commitment to provide youth, particularly those most disadvantaged, the opportunity to enter the labour market by means of a traineeship.
A traineeship combines formal training undertaken at a Registered Training Organisation and on-the-job training (employment) by a State public sector agency. Traineeships are for a period of 12 months.
